I always thought that the Z32 *should* have been a 2700 lb. 2-seat S13 with a V6 instead of a 3400+ lb. 2-seat version of the J30. Further disappointment with the 350Z and 370Z, which inherit WAY too much bulk and weight from the G35/G37 luxury sedans they were made out of.
A new 86ish Silvia and a smaller/lighter-weight Z based on that would have been brilliant. Too bad...
Toyota and/or Subaru ought to make a genuine sub-2800 lb. cab-rearward 50/50 sports car out of the 86, and steal some of the overfed Z's thunder! |
It's more like the S14 than S13/S15. Long wheelbase and wide track... but longer wheelbase and wider track than even the S14 by a good amount.
